The B-Mets ran into Toronto prospect Marcus Stroman, their 2012 first-round draft pick. Stroman’s had a nice year in AA with 129 strikeouts and just 27 walks in 111.2 innings.

SS Matt Reynolds made his AA debut and was 0-for-3. The Mets’ second round pick in 2012, Reynolds hit a disappointing .226/.302/.337 in 117 games with St. Lucie as a 22-year-old. He and Kevin Plawecki were promoted to AA Binghamton to help out with the B-Mets’ playoff run.

CF Brandon Nimmo(pictured): 0-for-3, BB, 2 K, SB. The 20-year-old finished the regular season at .273/.397/.359 in 110 games. He’s running better and taking stronger leads. He stole a base in each of the last two games of the season. In the second half, he’s 8-for-12 stealing bases (67%). That’s not special, but in the first half he was 2-for-5 (40%), that’s worse.
2B Dilson Herrera: 1-for-3, BB, K. Herrera’s single was a perfectly placed bunt in the second inning. In the ninth, he drew a two-out walk and went to second on a passed ball only to be stranded there when the game ended. The 19-year-old finished the SAL regular season at .267/.334/.416 with West Virginia and Savannah. As long as we’re on the subject of running, Herrera was 11-for-17 with West Virginia, and is a perfect 3-for-3 in seven games with Savannah. It might not be a meaningful change, or maybe he, like Nimmo, is picking his spots better.

The fact that Nimmo and Herrera can run is a nice ancillary boost to their overall value. They are good prospects because they can hit.
SS Philip Evans: 0-for-3. He finished the regular season at .203/.268/.263 in 106 games.
